Interests
Hazel Screen is a Professor of Biomedical Engineering working with organ-chip technology to explore the aetiology of health and disease, with a particular focus on mechanically functional tissues such as those in the musculoskeletal or cardiovascular systems. She focuses on healthy and pathological tissue structure-function relationships and their impact on cell metabolism, developing new models within which to explore fundamental tissue mechanics and biology questions as well as routes to new treatments and drug development. She co-directs the UK Organ-on-a-Chip Technologies Network as well as the Centre for Predictive in vitro Models and Queen Mary & Emulate Organs-on-Chips Centre at QMUL. She plays an active role in helping to shape the field and associated policy and regulation, as well as driving her own research group, funded from a range of UKRI and charity sources.Publications
